Toshiba 37XV503DB - 37" Widescreen 1080p Full HD LCD TV With Freeview

Toshiba 37XV503DB - 37" Widescreen 1080p Full HD LCD TV With Freeview Review



One of my annoyances with HD TVs is that they often handle standard definition signals very poorly, not so with this one. Using both the inbuilt freeview and Virgin provides clear pictures with little in the way of noticeable compression (big blocks appearing on the screen where resolution is low).

Blu-ray movies and HD games (played through a PS3 and HDMI cable) look superb. Text has to be the biggest benefit, especially in games and when browsing the Internet. Text that was un-readable on a standard definition set are now crystal clear. So good that I actually now use it for my laptop too (there is an input for VGA on the back, as well as more HDMI slots and scart slots that I'd ever need).

The only negative I've found is that connecting the TV to my stereo (for external speakers) provides a delay meaning you can't have the TV speakers and the stereo speakers 'live' at the same time as you get an echo effect. This is a minor problem however since the TV's speakers are more than adequate for most things.

All in all a great TV at a great price.

Gorgeous & Very Reasonable For Price - J. Atkins -
Spent ages looking over various different 37" tvs last week, and decided this one looked like the best value for money...
and i definately made the right choice, really has some excellent features.
the auto brightness works so well, means you dont have a problem watching the tv in a dark room as the tele automatically will decrease its brightness.
the xbox 360 looks sharp, though i think could look sharper, you can adjust the settings so much on this tele though and im sure its something to do with that.
also must add that the only difference between this and the 505DB is that outside casing, purely cosmetic, the internal tv is exactly the same.
id seen the 505DB in a shop and thought it looked nice, but the silver sides could look a little tacky, that isnt the case with this version, its just stunning to look at, all black except for a gunmetal stand which looks superb.
i recommend this tv, excellent.



first class Television - Barry R. Gray - Lincoln

Toshiba Regza 37AV615DB 37-inch Widescreen HD Ready LCD TV with Freeview

Toshiba Regza 37AV615DB 37-inch Widescreen HD Ready LCD TV with Freeview Review



The TV came very well packed in a large box. Once opened, it is basically just a case of attaching the stand to the bottom of the TV, which was easily done by lying the TV on a towel on the dining room table as directed in the instructions, with the bottom of the TV at the edge of the table. The stand then slots on to the TV and you are provided with four small screws to secure it.

Being 37 inches, the TV is quite large, and requires two people to carry it. I would not recommend trying to carry it alone. It weighs 20kg and because of its width is awkward to carry alone. We placed the TV where we wanted it and set about connecting the Sky box and DVD player.
This was easy, the scart cables just connect into the back of the TV. There are 2 scart sockets and also a USB port so you can plug in your pc or other electronic device. We plugged the TV in and turned it on with the remote control.

The initial set up screen appears, and after pressing 'ok' takes you through a simple and quick process, eg asking which country you are in, and which language you use. The TV then scans for channels which took a few seconds, and that was it. The TV was working. A very easy and simple process.

The picture was very clear and I was really impressed! The sound also is good. You can of course go into the menu and make changes to the settings.
There are some features on this TV such as :

Bass boost - Enhances the depth of the sound.

Stable sound - Reduces the volume level differences between channels. It automatically adjusts to the same volume level when you change channels.

Adaptive Luma Control - Automatically adjusts the brightness and contrast after analyzing the input signal.

Programme Block - Prevents children watching certain TV programmes, according to the rating limit set.
There are the other features such as a programme guide, digital noise reduction, picture mode, audio languages and favourites lists.

The TV has Freeview built in, although having Sky means it is not something I use.
There is also an EPG timer which enables you set a timer for a certain TV programme. If the TV is on standby, it will 'wake up' when the timer activates.

A remote control and cloth to clean the screen are also provided with the TV.
The remote control is easy to use and batteries are supplied.

Overall I can recommend this TV and I am very impressed with it so far. It has a clear sharp picture, good sound and very easy to use.

Sony Bravia KDL40W5500U 40-inch Widescreen Full HD 1080p LCD TV with Freeview and 100Hz Motionflow

Sony Bravia KDL40W5500U 40-inch Widescreen Full HD 1080p LCD TV with Freeview and 100Hz Motionflow Review



First of all, congratulations go to Amazon for outstanding delivery time and service. This TV was ordered late on a Wednesday night and delivered by parcel force early on the Saturday morning of that week. I think that is remarkable.

The set up of this TV is simplicity itself. From opening the box to putting on the stand, connecting it to our peripherals and switching on took less than 15 minutes. We have it connected to a Sky + box and so there was no tuning to be done. The correct input was selected for the Sky box and away we went.

My initial thoughts on seeing the picture were good but a few minor tweaks of brighness, hue and contrast and the picture was outstanding. Very crisp, natural looking colour and with motionflow on, movement was scarily smooth.

Can I address a couple of points others have raised and suggest solutions. Firstly several people have said that after a period of time the TV spontaneously switches off of its own accord. A brief look at the instruction manual will tell you that the front of the TV has a motion sensor which to all intents and purposes can `see` if anyone is in the room. If you have this feature turned `on` and you sit motionless for a couple of hours or for whatever time you have preset it for, then the TV will switch off. All you need to do is switch this feature off. Pretty simple.

The second very common `problem` is the light at each corner of the screen pointing into the centre of the screen. Some people have said this is present in very dark scenes and is so distracting they have had to send the appliance back. Just change the ambient light setting and the lights magically disappear! I can categorically say that the screen is super impressive even with terrestrial digital and I cannot wait to see its performance on SKY HD.

Sony Bravia TV`s are among the best quality you can get in this price range. I have several family members and friends who have these TV`s and have had no short or long term problems with them. Please don`t be put off by bad reviews. Some simple thought and reading solves all their complaints. Buy it and ENJOY!

Very good quality television - h7fal - Edinburgh, UK
Set up is nice and simplistic, picture excellent and sound is surprisingly decent (compared to me old Viera plasma). Bit of a dust magnet but I guess all these black TVs are. I would certainly recommend it.
